#Beginner

Hello Community,

I'm a beginner and currently working on a project to convert CCDA files to FHIR using InterSystems IRIS. I have developed a web form to upload CCDA files, and I'm attempting to convert the uploaded CCDA files to FHIR. However, I am encountering an issue where the conversion process results in an empty entry.
Here's the Output it displays on HTML page:

Size of CCDA Stream: 74152
vR4
{"resourceType":"Bundle","type":"transaction","entry":[]}

Here is my code: CCDtoFHIR.csp

Hi Developers!

This is the second post on the resources for Developers. This part is about Open Exchange

Using Open Exchange to Learn InterSystems

InterSystems Open Exchange is a applications gallery of tools, connectors, and libraries which InterSystems Developers submit to share the experience, approaches and do business. All the applications are either built with InterSystems data platforms or are intended to use for development with InterSystems data platforms.

If you are a beginner developer you can take a look at applications in Technology Example category. All the applications in this category come with open source code repositories, so you are able to run the samples and examples in a docker container with IRIS on your laptop or in the cloud IRIS sandbox. Examples:

Hi Developers!

Recently I was asked, “How can a beginner in InterSystems technologies learn from InterSystems Developers community content to improve his developer skills”?

This is a really good question. It has several answers so I decided to write the post with the hope it could be useful for developers.

So! How to learn Intersystems Data Platforms(IRIS, IRIS for Health) from InterSystems Developers community content if you are a beginner?

Are you new to coding in InterSystems IRIS® data platform?

Hi,

I am using embeded python to utilize some pythonic library but i got a problem on my hand.
One of the python function i am using return multiple values

in python you would do something like that :

val1, val2, val3, = function(params)

In COS I got something like that :

lib = ##class(%SYS.Python).Import("lib")
val1 = lib.function(params)

And I don't know how to get the second and third values.
Is there a way to get them?

Hey Community,

We have excellent news for you! We have prepared a new Instruqt course for you to sink your teeth into:

👉 InterSystems IRIS for Health Interoperability 👈

Hi, I need to make a prompt for a password and to not display what the user is typing in a CMD. I want to use the read command but i'm not sure if it is possible with it.

Hello dear developers,

I am currently doing an internship and learning about InterSystems IRIS and ObjectScript and have downloaded and installed the community version of IRIS.

I have not made any changes in the Management Portal.
In Visual Studio Code I have loaded the InterSystems ObjectScript Extension Pack.

If I now want to compile a file, VSC throws an error:
"ERROR #16006: Document name 'x.csp' is invalid"

The name of the file is "index.csp"
This error also appears when I try to compile other files.
I have noticed that the first 4 characters of the name are always missing.

Now, let’s say you can’t access the terminal or simply you just rather execute it from a web interface. In this article, I will show you how to execute terminal commands from a simple web page.

For example, in the image below you see how we execute $zv on a webpage:

This is mostly possible due to the XECUTE command in Caché ObjectSCript. This command takes a string as a parameter and tries to execute it. This is the command used from the webpage, to execute what is being passed from the left navigation menu.

Hi folks!

Recently I was in need to setup a local FHIR server using IRIS For Health and I think I found the easiest and simplest way ever.

Just run in terminal these two lines below :

docker run --rm --name my-iris -d --publish 9091:1972 --publish 9092:52773 intersystemsdc/irishealth-community

and

docker exec -it my-iris iris session iris -U "USER" '##class(%ZPM.PackageManager).Shell("install fhir-server")'

And you'll have FHIR server running locally at http://localhost:9092/fhir/r4.

That's it!

The FHIR server will use the latest build of InterSystems IRIS for Health Community Edition and will deploy FHIR server from this app via IPM package in  FHIRSERVER namespace.

This is for Mac, so please add in comments how it works in Windows.

This is a very short article as it is really easy to setup a local FHIR server with InterSystems IRIS for Health and IPM Package Manager.

Is it possible to generate a random string in cache please advice thank you in advance

I am very new to IRIS. We are developing a PHP application that connects to an IRIS instance of one of our vendors. I am having trouble with a specific table. When I need to query this specific table for specific fields, I am receiving an error. However, if I change the call to get all columns (`*`), there is no error. I get 37K records returned.

Hi Dev Community members,

In this post, we would like to show you how to use DC tags. Let's make the most of this Developer Community option!

A question for anyone using InterSystems technology:

What are the biggest challenges you’ve faced either trying to hire developers that know ObjectScript, or trying to train developers on ObjectScript?

Hi Community,

I am new to ensemble development, Can anyone share me few basic Concepts which will be helpful for Converting JSON message to other message types like HL7,XML 

Thanks,

What is the difference between "Apply" button and "Update" button on an Order Item screen?  

Hello everyone,

As someone who is new to the world of InterSystems technology, I have been looking for the best resources to learn more about it.

I have heard great things about InterSystems technology, particularly its speed and scalability, and I want to make sure I have a solid understanding of it before diving in further. From what I understand, the official InterSystems courses cover a wide range of topics and are taught by experts in the field.

Hi Community,

I am new to ensemble and cache object scripts ,i am trying to create a business service using Ens.BusinessService

but i have doubt what is the difference or uses between Parameters and property in defining classes in defining business service

I need to split existing tables from database and put some parts of them into a new namespace. I dont know where to start, other than the installer.cls file. If you can provide clear instructions i would be greatful.
Example:
I have NAMESPACE=NEWTEST and DB

The i need to take TABLES from that DB pull specific data from them and bind it to NEWTEST

Hi InterSystems Developers!

Recently I've updated the FHIR dev template so that it now publishes an IPM package fhir-server that makes the setup of InterSystems FHIR server a trivial manual or automatic or programmatic procedure one command long.

Please see below how you can benefit from it.

TLDR

USER>zpm "install fhir-server"

All the details below.

Good morning,

We have been investigating how to activate a Server to Generate Tokens and an associated Resource Server to Validate the Token. This step, actually we have found out with the invaluable support of @Alberto Fuentes from Intersystems.

Hi,

I

want to get the values from a serial property because my code depends upon the class serial class.

For example

Serial class

Class Data.Serial Extends %SerialObject

{

Property FirstName as %String;

Property LastName as %String;

}

Persistent class

Class Data.Persistent Extends %Persistent

{

Property MPID as %Integer;

Property Name as Name.Serial;

}

Now i need save MPID and Name(Serial class property into SQL Table ) so i am trying the below class

Class Data.TestUtil Extends %RegisteredObject

{

Method Savedata(MPID,FirstName,LastName)

{

Set tSC=0

Set Obj=##Class(Data.Persistent).%New()

Set Obj.MPID=MPID

Hello,

Thank you for reading this question, and thank you for your time and replies.

I was wondering which ways, tools, mechanisms, or vias would you recommend to teach to kids, teens, adults, being your sons / daughters or not; your passion or likelihood for programming and computers?

I know there are some programming free games like the following ones:

If anyone out there has had experience on this please advice all I need to do is be able to invoke my jar file within Cache(In general want to call my  java programme  within Cache

In this article, I would show how you can upload and download files from InterSystems products via http.

The questions about working with files over http arise fairly often on community and I'm usually linking to my FileServer project which demonstrates file upload/download but I'd like to talk a bit more on how we can serve and receive files from InterSystems products.

Downloading a file

If you have a file in on a file system and you know the path you can serve it from REST or CSP context by calling this method:

Hi Community ,

Can anyone please explain how to use EnsLib.EMail.AlertOperation operation to send notification to my email id when any error occurs in my production?

Please give any example how to use EnsLib.EMail.AlertOperation operation class
